Royce Gracie Advance Jiu Jitsu Gi Foot Lock Setups and Defenses Volume 2
Rorion Gracie opens with the same warning as before: the basics and intermediate series need to be second nature before any of this makes sense. Then Royce Gracie demonstrates what's actually the first thing most people apply wrong, the foot lock, covering the exact placement on the Achilles tendon, why your arm position makes or breaks it, and the specific body mechanic that does the stretching.
From there, the setups stack up. Foot locks from the guard, from standing, from a walking entry that angles to one side, from the bottom when someone's mounted on you with a wide base. Each variation gets broken down and repeated until the detail is clear. There's also a critical warning about applying foot locks against taller opponents and why it can go bad fast.
Then the defense side. Rorion and Royce show exactly what the person being foot locked needs to do, kick the heel in, grab the collar, close the distance, step over. Every escape is tied directly back to the attack that sets it up. And Rorion adds a separate warning about ankle locks with a torque inward, which he calls extremely dangerous and explains why people get damaged before they even feel the pain.
